About this campground
Like the sound of a really rather special glamping experience in the Lake District? Give Abbots Reading Farm a go. Their octolodges – natty camping pods sleeping up to six people – are well-insulated and cosy whatever the weather, and have spectacular views of the Rusland Valley and Coniston foothills. Based on a South Lakes farm, the lodges have lots of home comforts, such as beds with memory-foam mattresses, plenty of storage for your gear, a fridge, kettle and microwave for making simple meals and a TV for your downtime. Electricity keeps all your devices powered up as well as heating the units.

All you need to bring is sleeping bags and pillows, cooking equipment and eating utensils – and an all-important torch for finding the loos after dark. Family-friendly and communal facilities include a heated shower block, pot-washing and laundry areas, a barn (covered for wet-weather days) with picnic tables and benches for barbecues, and ping pong tables. Outside there’s a large play area with a toddler climbing frame and a soccer field with nets. Each pod also comes with its personal charcoal barbecue and firepit. Get out and about in the Lake District National Park by day, and come back on clear evenings to watch the sunset from your balcony and look out for birdlife including frequent visitors curlews, kingfishers, herons, red kites and owls. Around the hills and fields of the farm you may also spot otters and red or roe deer. The local town of Ulverston (10 minutes’ drive) has everything you need for stocking up on provisions.
